    Waiter forgot an order. It was difficult to get any waiter’s attention throughout the evening. It was clear they don’t want to be there. Good food but it’s a shame the service was so poor.

    Generally an enjoyable meal but a bizarre wait for our drinks as the waiter who solicitously took our order when asked where they were said”he was not allowed to go to the bar”!
